i once was a romantic
oh my heart unshielded like a fool
until he walked in my life like an angel
but thirsty and praying for a kind sweetheart
as time went down his wings came off
his horns grew tall
he took what he wanted
packed his bags and departed
and left my heart in the cold
angel of blues
tainted my heart with pain and sorrow
i tasted the matter of blues
now my heart says love has trouble
so lady what you want i can't give
and my heart is unable to take and not give back
so please please leave me alone
leave me find you
someone who'll give you what you really deserve
and no don't call me a liar
cause my words differ from the words in my song
i write love songs for the roadful
though my heart is hopeless when it comes to love
angel of blues
tainted my heart with pain and sorrow
i tasted the matter of blues
now my heart sees love as trouble
angel of blues
tainted my heart with pain and sorrow
i tasted the nectar of blues
now my heart says love has
my heart says love has
my heart says love has
i don't feel this way anymore
